Intake valve timing control
  • The signal is not energized to the intake valve timing control solenoid valve and the valve control does not function.

  • ECM activates the IVT intermediate lock control solenoid valve to bring the cam sprocket into an intermediate lock condition.

P0118
Engine coolant temperature sensor circuit

Engine coolant temperature will be determined by ECM based on the following condition.

CONSULT displays the engine coolant temperature decided by ECM.
Condition

Engine coolant temperature decided

(CONSULT display)
Just as ignition switch is turned ON or START 40°C (104°F)
Approx 4 minutes or more after engine starting 80°C (176°F)
Except as shown above

40 - 80°C (104 - 176°F)

(Depends on the time)
When the fail-safe system for engine coolant temperature sensor is activated, the cooling fan operates while engine is running.

P2135
Throttle position sensor

The ECM controls the electric throttle control actuator in regulating the throttle opening in order for the idle position to be within +10 degrees.

The ECM regulates the opening speed of the throttle valve to be slower than the normal condition.

Therefore, the acceleration will be poor.

P0198
Engine oil temperature sensor Intake valve timing control does not function.
P0500 Nissan Murano Vehicle speed sensor The cooling fan operates (Highest) while engine is running.
P0524 Engine oil pressure
  • ECM illuminates oil pressure warning lamp on the combination meter.

  • Engine speed will not rise more than 4,000 rpm due to the fuel cut.

  • Fail-safe is canceled when ignition switch OFF → ON.

P052D
Intake valve timing intermediate lock control
P059F Active grille shutter
  • When a voltage and temperature related malfunction is detected, the active grille shutter stops at the position of detection.

  • Except for the above case, operates the active grille shutter to fully opened position.

P0603

P0607
ECM Engine torque may be limited.
P0604 ECM
  • ECM stops the electric throttle control actuator control, throttle valve is maintained at a fixed opening (approx. 5 degrees) by the return spring.

  • The position of the following components is fixed.

    • Intake valve timing control solenoid valve

    • Exhaust valve timing control solenoid valve

    • Intake manifold runner control valve

  • ASCD operation may be deactivated.

ECM

NOTE:

Fail-safe may not occur depending on malfunction type.

  • ECM stops the electric throttle control actuator control, throttle valve is maintained at a fixed opening (approx. 5 degrees) by the return spring.

  • The position of the following components is fixed.

    • Intake valve timing control solenoid valve

    • Exhaust valve timing control solenoid valve

    • Intake manifold runner control valve

  • ASCD operation may be deactivated.

P060A ECM

NOTE:

Fail-safe may not occur depending on malfunction type.

  • ECM stops the electric throttle control actuator control, throttle valve is maintained at a fixed opening (approx. 5 degrees) by the return spring.

  • The position of the following components is fixed.

    • Intake valve timing control solenoid valve

    • Exhaust valve timing control solenoid valve

    • Intake manifold runner control valve

  • Engine torque may be limited.

  • ASCD operation may be deactivated.

P0643 Sensor power supply
  • ECM stops the electric throttle control actuator control, throttle valve is maintained at a fixed opening (approx. 5 degrees) by the return spring.

  • The position of the following components is fixed.

    • Intake valve timing control solenoid valve

    • Exhaust valve timing control solenoid valve

    • Intake manifold runner control valve

P1805
Brake switch

ECM controls the electric throttle control actuator by regulating the throttle opening to a small range.

Therefore, acceleration will be poor.
Nissan Murano Vehicle condition Driving condition
When engine is idling Normal
When accelerating Poor acceleration

P2103
Throttle control motor relay ECM stops the electric throttle control actuator control, throttle valve is maintained at a fixed opening (approx. 5 degrees) by the return spring.
P2101 Electric throttle control function ECM stops the electric throttle control actuator control, throttle valve is maintained at a fixed opening (approx. 5 degrees) by the return spring.
P2118 Throttle control motor ECM stops the electric throttle control actuator control, throttle valve is maintained at a fixed opening (approx. 5 degrees) by the return spring.
P2119 Electric throttle control actuator

(When electric throttle control actuator does not function properly due to the return spring malfunction:)

ECM controls the electric throttle actuator by regulating the throttle opening around the idle position. The engine speed will not rise more than 2,000 rpm.

(When throttle valve opening angle in fail-safe mode is not in specified range:)

ECM controls the electric throttle control actuator by regulating the throttle opening to 20 degrees or less.

(When ECM detects the throttle valve is stuck open:)

While the Nissan Murano vehicle is being driven, it slows down gradually because of fuel cut. After the vehicle stops, the engine stalls.

The engine can restart in the N or P position, and engine speed will not exceed 1,000 rpm or more.

P2138
Accelerator pedal position sensor

The ECM controls the electric throttle control actuator in regulating the throttle opening in order for the idle position to be within +10 degrees.

The ECM regulates the opening speed of the throttle valve to be slower than the normal condition.

Therefore, the acceleration will be poor.
